[quote=Anonymous]I don't have ADHD children but I do have children who are the same age, as well as older and younger than the OP's child. I think the OP should trust her instincts. I can imagine some 8 yos who are immature for their age doing something like this and coming across as very toddler-like and more sweet and loving than strange. But the OP makes it sounds like it's too much and I respect that. Can you come up with some sort of alternative? Could you give him one of your old t-shirts or nightgowns to smell while you hold and hug him, and he can sleep with it if he wants to? (my kids have blankets that they love to sleep with and even smell.) I know my children can be all over me phsyically at times and I have to give them an alternative because it's just too much, despite my being a very affectionate mother. This seems like one of those situations. Sounds like everyone would be better off if he was holding and smelling your shirt rather than being all over you. [/quote]
